拜耳勒沃库森’;周四,卡拉巴格终结了他的六连胜,但哈维-阿隆索;的球队应该会在周日对阵苦苦挣扎的沃尔夫斯堡时回到最佳状态。
阿隆索在周中做出了一系列改变,让弗洛里安·维尔茨、格拉尼特·萨卡、帕特里克·希克和皮耶罗·辛卡皮等球员休息,同时仍然看到他的球队在阿塞拜疆2-2战平对手。
他知道自己在做什么,因为他在本赛季早些时候的欧联杯小组赛中对阵卡拉巴格,尽管他的球队在随后以4-0击败柏林联合队的比赛中没有表现出回归的不良影响。
这可能会稍微困难一些,因为沃尔夫斯堡虽然在过去九场比赛中没有获胜,但现在比当时的联盟更好。但支持Werkself赢得漂亮的胜利可能仍然值得,就像他们在本赛季前12场主场比赛中的7场比赛中所做的那样。
Jeremie Frimpong将因停赛而缺席比赛,但随着勒沃库森接近德甲冠军,所有休息的常规队员都将重返赛场。上周末,当他们2-0淘汰科隆队时,他们的比赛中没有任何紧张的迹象,尽管当他们在自己的球迷面前比赛时,这种紧张情绪可能会更大。
如果沃尔夫斯堡在这场比赛中率先得分,就像他们在过去四场客场比赛中的三场比赛中所做的那样,看看他们如何应对将是一件有趣的事情。但是Niko Kovac’;的球队没有赢得任何一场比赛,肯定会被勒沃库森淘汰;的经典剧目。
预言:
拜耳勒沃库森-1
拜耳勒沃库森3-1
外文原文如下:
Bayer Leverkusen’s six-game winning streak was ended by Qarabag on Thursday, but Xabi Alonso’s side should get back into their groove against a struggling Wolfsburg side on Sunday.
Alonso made a raft of changes in midweek, resting the likes of Florian Wirtz, Granit Xhaka, Patrik Schick and Piero Hincapie while still seeing his side claim a 2-2 draw in Azerbaijan.
He knew what he was doing, having faced Qarabag in the group stages of the Europa League earlier this season, although his side showed no ill effects of their return that time as they subsequently thrashed Union Berlin 4-0.
This may be slightly tougher as Wolfsburg, although winless in their last nine games, are a better side now than Union were then. But it is probably still worth supporting Werkself to win handsomely as they have done in seven of their previous 12 home games this season.
Jeremie Frimpong will be missing through suspension, but all of the rested regulars will be back in for this clash as Leverkusen close in on the Bundesliga title. There were no signs of nerves in their play last weekend when they dismissed Cologne 2-0, although there may be a greater chance of that creeping in when they play in front of their own fans.
It will be interesting to see how they cope if Wolfsburg score first in this clash, as they have done in three of their last four away games. But Niko Kovac’s side have not won any of those games and will surely be worn down by Leverkusen’s classy play eventually.
Predictions:Bayer Leverkusen -1
Bayer Leverkusen 3-1
